Representative Text

1 In perfect peace I now can say,
Trusting in the name of Jesus,
I walk with God from day to day,
Trusting in the name of Jesus;
I walk by faith and not by sight,
Trusting in the name of Jesus,
His love my theme from morn till night,
Trusting in the name of Jesus.

Refrain:
Trusting in the name of Jesus,
Only in the name of Jesus,
I walk with God from day to day,
Trusting in the name of Jesus.

2 I came with guilt and sin oppressed,
Trusting in the name of Jesus,
I took his yoke and found sweet rest,
Trusting in the name of Jesus;
How light my burdens now appear,
Trusting in the name of Jesus;
I have no time for doubt or fear,
Trusting in the name of Jesus. [Refrain]

3 Beneath the hallowed mercy-seat,
Trusting in the name of Jesus,
I sit enraptured at his feet,
Trusting in the name of Jesus;
And when my span of life is o’er,
Trusting in the name of Jesus,
My soul shall fly to yonder shore,
Trusting in the name of Jesus. [Refrain]
